"Claude Monet: 1840-1926 was published in conjunction with the exhibition of the same title, organized by The Art Institute of Chicago and presented from July 22 through November 26, 1995." - from the copyright page. "Claude Monet is one of the greatest and most enduringly popular artists of all time. Monet's work went through many thematic and stylistic phases during his long career; always his goal was to capture the impression on the viewer's eye and record the visual sensation of light and color that guided his brush. Claude Monet: 1840-1926 is published to coincide with a major exhibition at The Art Institute of Chicago - the most comprehensive retrospective ever assembled of this great artist's work. A lavishly illustrated record of the exhibition, this book presents in full color 161 masterpieces, drawn from public and private collections all over the world, along with an extensive month-by-month chronology of the artist, examining his life and career in absorbing detail. This catalogue brings together in an accessible format a wealth of information about one of the world's best-loved artists. As this book makes clear, despite his present popularity Monet is still not credited for some of his most remarkable achievements." - from the rear outer cover.…

"The ru Le Peletier is unlucky," wrote Wolff (the most influential critic of the day). "Following on the fire at the Opera a new disaster has fallen on the district. An exhibition of so-called painting has just opened at Durand-Ruel's." This is typical of the critical reception accorded to the Impressionists in those early days. In 1879, still under forty, Monet was to realize the full bitterness of the sacrifice which he had made -- Camille died; faithful, devoted, uncomplaining Camille. Camille, who had followed him patiently through starvation, ridicule, and abuse, was eventually, and almost inevitably, claimed by the years of privation. Ironically the turning point was only a few years away. The second half of his life, respectable, prosperous, and full of peace and quiet, is in dramatic contrast to the stormy days which he shared with Camille. From the cocksure by in Le Havre whose slick caricatures brought him considerable local renown to the revered father-figure of French painting at Giverny Monet had travelled a long and painful road. He was cut off by his parents withou a sou. They had, anyway, a bourgeois prejudice against artists, but they could have forgiven him if his art had been academic and profitable. As it was, he was laughed to scorn by the respectable art world, he was constatly penniless, and, as if to confirm their worst suspicions there was Camille. His father's reply to a request for help was "No, not while that woman is with you." They were so poor that sometimes they had to burn the furniture to keep warm in winter, and often they went hungry to buy the precious paints and materials which were his lifeblood. On one occasion they were only kept alive by crusts of bread which Renoir filched from his mother's kitchen and brought to them. But the poverty and the hardships and the struggle are only the raw materials of this story and they serve to point more brilliantly to the warmth and vitality that grew out of them. The world of the Impressionists is a strange world full of contrasts. Men and women from all kinds of backgrounds and of widely different temperaments and characters were drawn together by one thing -- their faith in their way of painting: from the aristocratic Degas with the acid tongue to the wandering, suspicious, lonely Cezanne; from the boisterous, expansive Courbet to Boudin, shy and humble, whose exquisite miniature seascapes were Monet's first accquaintance with painting; from Monet himself, solid, iron-willed, unshakeable, to the nervy, mercurial Renoir who was up in the heights one moment and down in the depths the next. A strange world and a hard one, but, for all that, one full of generosity and gaiety and a great zest for life. And Monet was one of the great rocks which propped up this world. He had the spirit of a giant which nothing could break, and his companions found in his immense cheerfulness and courage a tremendous source of strength and inspiration. He, in his turn, drew much of that strength from Camille." -- from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. …
